Doc, Can You Balance My Double Eyelids?

This patient had had double eyelid surgery done somewhere but was unhappy with the left double eyelid which appeared to be too high. Examination showed this was caused by too much fat being removed and hence the high double eyelid with sunken look.

Uneven double eyelids treated with hyaluronic acid.

I injected 0.3 ml of hyaluronic acid Juverdem into the preaponeurotic space (arrowed) to replace the missing volume and straight away the double eyelids appeared equal.
